Description:
John Cleese's Personal Best
For more than 40 years, John Cleese has made millions--nay, billions--of fans laugh themselves into a state of near incontinence.

But have you ever asked yourself, "What makes John Cleese laugh?" You haven't, have you, you selfish git? Well, for once in your life think about someone else and pick up this copy of JOHN CLEESE'S PERSONAL BEST. It's chock full of Python bits selected by The Great Cleese himself, plus original never-before-seen material created by The Magnificent One exclusively for this sacred DVD.

Graham Chapman's Personal Best
Some say you can't take it with you. Others just refuse to go. Graham Chapman--doctor, tall actor, self-wrestler and really famous dead guy--is the latter.

Chapman has a least 8 movie and TV appearances to his credit since he passed away in 1989, making him the most prolific corpse since Elvis. This DVD, GRAHAM CHAPMAN'S PERSONAL BEST, makes 9. In a comprehensive tribute written by the 5 other members of the incomparable Monty Python's Flying Circus, this program includes the sketches they believe Chapman would have called his very favorites. Of course, they could be wrong.

Eric Idle's Personal Best
Eric Idle--the outrageously successful actor, writer, composer, director, producer and Broadway impresario--is not satisfied yet.

Determined to reshape the entire entertainment world in his image, Eric has gathered what he considers to be the very best Monty Python material of the entire four-year run and squeezed it all into one convenient package. This one. He's even created all-new, never-before-seen material exclusively for this DVD.

It's amazing what some zillionaire mega-stars will do for a few extra shillings, isn't it?

Terry Jones' Personal Best
Terry Jones--writer, director, actor, political satirist, polymath genius--still can't figure out what he wants to do with his life. So he's back to bother us.

Between attempts to save the free world, Mr. "'I can't make up my ginormous mind" Jones has scrutinized the entire four-year run of Flying Circus and pretty much taken credit for all of it. Herein lie His Majesty's picks of the very best Python Sketches along with incontrovertible new evidence that it was all his doing.

So pour yourself a glass of sherry and join Terry at the piano for a silly walk down memory lane which he calls, "How I Created Monty Python's Flying Circus."

Terry Gilliam's Personal Best
Terry Gilliam--the disturbed American animator who shifted Monty Python from "very strange" all the way to "totally bizarre"--has finally snapped.

From Baron Munchausen to Time Bandits to Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, no project has challenged Gilliam's unstable mind like this one: building an entirely new Monty Python experience out of the best pieces of the entire four-year Flying Circus run. The results, in this tiny unassuming package, are truly devastating.

Brace yourself for the first-ever, ALL-ANIMATION Monty Python program--exactly as Gilliam would have done it if the BBC were crazy enough to put him in charge.

Michael Palin's Personal Best
Michael Palin--globe-trotting adventurer and "Comedian's Comedian"--has somehow managed to sit still just long enough to put together his compilation of the very best of MONTY PYTHON.

Of course, the perpetually peripatetic Palin found it impossible to resist a bit of free travel, so he has courteously included an all-new, never-before-seen retrospective visit to the site of the notorious Fish-Slapping Dance.

And because he's the nice Python, Michael Palin has included, on this very disc, the world-famous Cheese Shop Sketch. Let's hear it for Michael! Huzzah.
